About

This is the fifth volume of the on-going recording project of Bruckner’s complete Symphonies by Paavo Järvi and Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra. In the end this project will be comprised of nine symphonies, and so-called “Nullte” Symphony in D Minor. Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra boasts long tradition of Bruckner performances, and in early 1980s they attained special attention when Eliahu Inbal recorded the acclaimed recordings of the Symphonies No. 3, No. 4 and No. 8, which developed into the recording of complete Bruckner symphonies. Recorded live in Alte Oper in Frankfurt and edited from multiple performances, this new recording presents new insight into this neglected masterpiece by Bruckner. As Conductor Laureate of Frankfurt Radio Symphony Orchestra, this season Järvi releases the complete Mahler Symphonies with the orchestra on DVD (Unitel). Järvi also holds the position of Music Director Laureate of the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and takes up the position of Chief Conductor of the NHK Symphony Orchestra from the 2015/16 season.
